Description: The title essay here is both a contribution to Nancy's project of a 'deconstruction of Christianity' and an exemplum of his writings on art. In analysing the 'Noli me tangere' trope in art, he looks at paintings by Rembrandt, Durer, Titian and others. The book also contains an essay on Mary Magdalene and a lecture for children.
